Why So Many Pick
Implant-Supported Dentures

Dental implants provide the maximum level of stability and support for dentures. Surgically embedded into the jaw, implants avoid the slippage that can sometimes occur with traditional dentures. 

Implants also help keep your jaw healthy. When you are missing natural teeth, jawbone stimulation ceases. This can result in jawbone atrophy that causes distorted facial features, gum recession, pain, tooth shifting, and more. The dental implants that support dentures can put a stop to this dangerous atrophy.

While more costly than traditional dentures, the implant-supported solution is often chosen by our Rockford, IL, patients because implants result in an extraordinary fit with optimal dental function. The implants themselves last a lifetime with proper care, making them a nearly unbeatable investment.

Exploring the Benefits of Dentures

Promote Your Oral Health

Even one missing tooth puts you at risk for oral health issues such as jawbone deterioration and dental misalignment. Dentures work to minimize your chances of developing problems that can take a toll on your oral health and overall well-being.

Improve Daily Function

If you have been missing teeth for some time, you may have avoided eating your favorite foods or put up with difficulty speaking. Thanks to dentures, however, you’ll be able to chew, bite, and speak with ease.

Boost Confidence

If missing teeth are leaving you less than satisfied with your smile, dentures can provide a natural-looking solution. Dentures can also provide support to your facial structures to address a sinking or sagging appearance.

Struggling with missing teeth can make it feel like the ability to speak and eat confidently again is out of reach. Many potential dentures patients struggle with self-confidence as a result of their dental issues, making them hesitant to get the dentures they need to boost their self-esteem.

One visit to our expert dentist can put you on the path to a functional smile you can be proud of. To find out which of our team's multiple dentures options is right for you, call or write to request your consultation

How We Place Dentures at Our Rockford Practice

Gentle Family Dentistry offers both traditional and implant-supported dentures, depending on your needs, budget, and lifestyle.
Gentle Family Dentistry offers both traditional and implant-supported dentures, depending on your needs, budget, and lifestyle.

Initial Consultation

Like dental bridges and dental crowns, dentures are an effective tooth loss treatment. If you are missing one or several teeth, Dr. Alkassir will determine the ideal treatment option for you.

Preparatory Dental Work

If you require extractions or dental implants, your dentist will complete these procedures first and give your mouth time to heal. Extracting a tooth may need a few weeks of healing time, while dental implants require several months to allow the implants to fuse to the jawbone.

Impressions

We will take either traditional or digital impressions of your dental arches and any remaining teeth. Our team will send these to a local lab, where specialists will fabricate your personalized restoration. This usually takes about 2-3 weeks.

Denture Placement

Once your dentures are created, you will return to our Rockford-area practice, where your dentist will ensure your restoration fits properly. Our dentist will make any necessary adjustments to ensure proper fit and optimal comfort.

How Long Will My Dentures Last?

Materials will undergo natural wear and tear, and eventually, there will come a time you need your dentures replaced. A set of dentures will last about 10 years on average, but with proper care and maintenance, they can last even longer.

Our practice crafts dentures from IPS e.max® acrylic, a versatile, high-strength material that can match the appearance of natural teeth. Whether you’re wondering if it’s time to replace your existing dentures or want to learn more about our high-quality restorations, Gentle Family Dentistry is here to help. A new smile you’re proud to show off can be yours.

Maintaining Your Dentures Aftercare Tips

Practice Good Oral Hygiene

Just as you would natural teeth, brush your denture twice daily with a soft-bristle brush. A traditional denture should be removed every night and soaked in water or denture cleanser to give your gums a break.

Clean Your Dentures Regularly

In addition to brushing, we recommend you rinse your dentures after meals to remove any food particles that may have become trapped.

Properly Store Your Dentures

Store your traditional dentures in water or a cleaning solution when you’re not wearing them.

Visit Your Dentist Periodically

Getting acclimated to your new prosthetic may take a few weeks or longer. Fortunately, we can make adjustments as needed.

After you receive your traditional or implant-supported dentures, Dr. Alkassir will review everything you should keep up with — and what you should avoid — to get the most out of your restoration.
